Just got canceled to speak at a climate change reform event because of a past tweet where I linked COVID-19 to the country of China. They claimed it was racially insensitive.

Mike Lee responds to my tweet with a blatant lie. The areas I posted pictures of are SPECIFICALLY for sale.
Other Republicans Senators cannot let this man ruin our legacy on conservation.
None of the places depicted would be eligible for sale under our bill.
The legislation specifically exempts National Parks, National Monuments, Wilderness Areas, National Recreation Areas, and eleven other categories of federally protected land from sales to build much-needed housing for American families.

Provide us a map of the land you’re trying to sell. It’s pretty simple.
If you’re selling 3 million acres of OUR land, we deserve to know what’s being sold.
Is there a reason you’re not being transparent with the American people?
The Senate bill does not authorize the sale of national parks, monuments, or wilderness.
It identifies unused, garden-variety federal parcels for potential disposal—nothing more.
Don’t fall for Tracy @StoneManning’s disinformation campaign.
@RepHageman sets the record straight 👇🏻

Community note
No parcels are explicitly identified in the bill. It delegates enormous discretion to governors and local governments to decide what counts as “suitable,” and that discretion is not limited to obviously “unused, garden-variety” parcels.

America (in its entirety) has told you they don’t want this.
Your Republican colleagues have told you they don’t want this.
The Senate parliamentarian has told you this fails to comply with Congressional rules.
Why are you continuing to do it?
Housing prices are crushing families and keeping young Americans from living where they grew up. We need to change that.
Thanks to YOU—the AMERICAN PEOPLE—here’s what I plan to do:
1. REMOVE ALL Forest Service land. We are NOT selling off our forests.
2. SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE the amount of BLM land in the bill. Only land WITHIN 5 MILES of population centers is eligible.
3. Establish FREEDOM ZONES to ensure these lands benefit AMERICAN FAMILIES.
4. PROTECT our farmers, ranchers, and recreational users. They come first.
Yes, the Byrd Rule limits what can go in the reconciliation bill, but I’m doing everything I can to support President Trump and move this forward.
Stay tuned. We’re just getting started.

While Phillip was being stabbed four times across his upper body, Chris somehow tackled the attacker, found a way for both of them to escape, and saved Phillip’s life.
Chris is a humble, Godly man who won’t share this story himself, but he’s a hero that deserves to be celebrated as such.

For what it’s worth, this video is from *AUGUST 2024* and Trump was specifically talking about the Las Vegas area — not 3 million acres of American land in 11 Western states.

We’re going to have land release, and on that land we’re going to build housing.” -@POTUS

To put it into perspective, Tomi is a 20-something who made it big by saying offensive things & being angry.

@charliekirk11 isn’t falling for it—and neither should you.
Community note
In the video the senator says that, contrary to "alarmist rhetoric", the bill explicitly exempts national forests.
Updates have been promised, but the pushback is due to the current version of the bill explicitly including national forests, not exempting them.

Here’s how it happens:

Here’s how it happens:
It’s easy for Congress to spend

Cutting tends *not* to happen

With the recent dialogue about Candace Owens, I thought I’d share this story.
A couple of years ago, I wrote an op-ed for a national publication that Candace also contributed to. In the op-ed, I respectfully critiqued her denial of climate change after she was challenged on Joe Rogan’s show about it. (To be clear, the op-ed was not solely about her, she was just *mentioned* as an example of where conservatives have gone wrong on the topic.)
About an hour later, she contacted the outlet and threatened to never write for them again if they didn’t take down the op-ed. Of course, they ended up taking it down because they didn’t want to lose her. But they remarked at how ironic it was that the so-called “pro-free speech, free-thinking” spokesperson couldn’t refrain from threatening a media outlet for merely being critiqued in an op-ed.
I don’t know all of the intricacies of the Daily Wire situation, but Candace Owens has always been a fraud. She doesn’t care about the conservative movement or this country. She only cares about herself, and always has.
